Virus & Security Information

Enterprise passwords must be 8-128 characters, with a mix of numbers, letters and non-alphanumeric characters. Password expires every 100 days.
Internet passwords must be 8-125 characters, with a mix of numbers, letters and non-alphanumeric characters. Password checking for a strong password is used. Password expires annually.
M Key (Two-factor authentication) pins must be 4 digits and not use simple combinations (e.g. 1234, 1111, 2222). M Key code changes for each login which is why two-factor authentication is stronger than reusable passwords.

Forgot your password? Students can use the Self-Service Passwords Reset option on the Internet Account Options page to reset their passwords.

There is no self-service reset option available to faculty and staff. Contact the ITSS TechCenter HelpDesk for assistance.
